14 ORDER DISMISSING MULTIPLE

CASES WITH PREJUDICE

15

16 Plaintiff, a state prisoner, filed multiple pro se civil rights complaints under 42 17 U.S.C. § 1983. Plaintiff is a condemned prisoner who also has a pending federal habeas 18 petition in this court with appointed counsel. See Bonilla v. Ayers, Case No. 08-0471 19 YGR. Plaintiff is also represented by counsel in state court habeas proceedings. See In 20 re Bonilla, Case No. 20-2986 PJH, Docket No. 1 at 7. 21 Plaintiff presents nearly identical claims in these actions. He names as 22 defendants several state courts, state judges and other state and federal officials. He 23 seeks relief regarding his underlying conviction or how his other cases were handled by 24 the state and federal courts. 25 To the extent that plaintiff seeks to proceed in forma pauperis (IFP) in these cases, 26 he has been disqualified from proceeding IFP under 28 U.S.C. § 1915(g) unless he is 27 “under imminent danger of serious physical injury” at the time he filed his complaint. 28 1 U.S.C. 1915(g); In re Steven Bonilla, Case No. 11-3180 CW; Bonilla v. Dawson, Case 2 No. 13-0951 CW. 3 The allegations in these complaints do not show that plaintiff was in imminent 4 danger at the time of filing. Therefore, he may not proceed IFP. Moreover, even if an 5 IFP application were granted, his lawsuits would be barred under Heck v. Humphrey, 512 6 U.S. 477, 486-87 (1994), Younger v. Harris, 401 U.S. 37, 43-54 (1971), Demos v. U.S. 7 District Court, 925 F.2d 1160, 1161-62 (9th Cir. 1991) or Mullis v. U.S. Bankruptcy Court, 8 828 F.2d 1385, 1393 (9th Cir. 1987). Accordingly, the cases are dismissed with 9 prejudice. 10 The clerk shall terminate all pending motions and close these cases. The clerk 11 shall return, without filing, any further documents plaintiff submits in these closed cases. 12 IT IS SO ORDERED. 13 Dated: September 19, 2022 14 15 /s/ Phyllis J. Hamilton
